about me.

I currently work as a Design Engineer for Peak Design.

I formerly was a Hardware Product Manager at Fellow, creating tools for specialty coffee through a user-centered design process. 

I graduated with my Masters in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University following my BS in Product Design Engineering.

I was a Course Assistant in Stanford's Product Realization Lab (PRL) where I worked with a team to lead over 1,000 undergraduate and graduate students through their design process and taught them the fundamentals of manufacturing in our machine shop, wood shop, foundry, plastics lab, rapid prototyping lab, and welding lab.

My current obsession is Ceramics, and you can follow my work here.

A note on my name - it is pronounced “puh-NOO-kee VOO” and its meaning is shining sunflower in Hmong.
